The house is very spacious and beautifully decorated in a relaxed coastal style. Very quiet residential location with a nice walk down to the jetty cafe and lunch at Julios near by, so we avoided the busier parts of Port Stephens. ##### Camilla L.

Reviewer Comments: Driftwood Cottage has a beautiful outlook to the west from the house and large verandah with a huge reserve down to the water's edge. We were a party of 11 family members aged from 1.5 years to 71 years and the cottage easily catered for us all. Gorgeous sunsets, an easy walk through the reserve or along the foreshore to the park, beach and play equipment. It was an easy drive to visit other beautiful beaches at Shoal Bay and Fingal Bay. The owners very kindly provided a large number of items in the starter pack and also a gorgeous welcoming hamper of wine and treats which were delicious. Mostly we cooked our dinners, however, the last night we dined at The Deck Cafe at Soldiers Point where there was a sunset view and delicious dinners. On our second last night we watched a koala cuddled into a gum with its eyes closed which was an incredible treat for us all. We enjoyed a perfect week and will definitely return - perhaps 10 days next time! We would happily recommend Driftwood Cottage to anyone wanting a peaceful holiday whilst being close to all the attractions of Port Stephens including many lovely stores in Nelson Bay.

Driftwood was a magical place for our long awaited Christmas gathering. It was in perfect condition. The bedroom settings was perfect for our family & the colour schemes in each rooms bedding was delightful. The kitchen was very well maintained and there were plenty of glasses,cups etc as well as utensils. The back verandah was a great gathering spot for us to watch the family play games on the flat lawn or just sit & talk. We even had a games night there after a wonderful bbq. Stu's Beach right in front of the cottage was a favourite with the children who spent many hours down there. We had fish & chips from the local eatery down by the water. Everything in the the description was true about Driftwood Cottage & our family would return in a heartbeat. ##### G H.

As soon as we opened the courtyard, were drawn in… with undisturbed views of the back terrace, back yard and water views through the swaying eucalyptus teasing us as we approached the front door. The styling is beautiful throughout the house, the layout perfect for our Famlily long weekend. We wished we had more time, will be returning, Thank you Driftwood ##### Phillipa S.
